Bloodmobile coming to Harmony Sept. 25

Wednesday, September 19, 2012 6:49 AM

Harmony will be hosting a bloodmobile at the Harmony Community Center from 1 to 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 25. All donors will be required to provide identification before donating, so please remember a donor card or driver's license.

Typically, all healthy men and women who are at least 16 years old and weigh 110 pounds or more are eligible to donate blood. Donors who are 16 must have the written permission of a parent or guardian. Parental consent forms will be available on the day of the blood drive.

There is no upper age limit, and the time commitment is minimal.

While walk-ins are more than welcome, donors are highly encouraged to make appointments. To make an appointment, call Marilyn Bratager at (507) 937-3406.

A comment must be approved by our staff before it will displayed on the website.

MN Soccer

Major League Soccer announced that Minnesota will be the home of a new Major League Soccer team. The owners also announced they want to build a new open-air stadium for the team. Do you think it should be funded through public subsidies or privately funded?
